Abstract

This paper presents a new method of identifying an optical sensor like Fiber Bragg Grating^1,2 (FBG) temperature sensors. The identifier is a pattern inscribed into the core of an optical fiber by a femtosecond laser. A Rayleigh backscattering interrogator is used to readout the identifier.
